Chapter 126: Chapter 91: Shen Feiyang: What! You Want Me to Go Undercover in the Black Lotus Sect?

As he spoke, Yu Tianqi retrieved a fragmented piece of parchment from his Storage Pouch.

The archaic aura exuding from the parchment, along with the ox-faced Exotic Beast drawn on it, immediately made Shen Feiyang sense its extraordinary nature.

"This is the unique Classic of Mountains and Seas of the Mountain and Sea Bureau. Sealed within it is a Mountain and Sea Beast named Ao Yin.

"Rest assured, due to certain special circumstances, this Mountain and Sea Beast has already had its consciousness erased by a Great Divine Ability User of the Mountain and Sea Bureau. It is now like a puppet, so you don’t need to worry about it harming you.

"Take it. In the future, if you encounter other people from the Mountain and Sea Bureau during a crisis, you can take it out to prove your identity.

"Because other than the Mountain and Sea Bureau, no one else in this world can control a Mountain and Sea Beast. You don’t have to worry about them doubting you."

At this point, Shen Feiyang completely dropped his act.

He took the parchment and asked his final question.

"Lord Yu, my current identity is a student of the Third High School. Moreover, given my situation, if I don’t go to a Daoist School to study, it might seem too abrupt and rouse suspicion. I wonder..."

Yu Tianqi seemed to have anticipated this long ago. He smiled and said, "Don’t worry, this won’t have any impact. The Black Lotus Sect wants their followers to infiltrate the Four Great Dao Schools more than anyone else.

"After all, if they can recruit some followers within the Daoist Schools, it would only benefit them without any drawbacks.

"Therefore, after you join the sect, they will definitely want you to maintain your surface cover and attend a Daoist School normally.

"And my requirements for you are the same. I hope you can get in touch with the higher-ups of the Black Lotus Sect as much as possible, and without exposing yourself, pass their information to me. That will be enough.

"Student Shen Feiyang, I promise you here and now. Three years. In just three years, I will definitely uproot the entire Black Lotus Sect and forge a brand new world.

"Until then, I can only ask you to endure this grievance..."

He thought, "Endure a grievance? This is no grievance at all!

"Lord Yu, you are truly my great benefactor.

"With your endorsement today, from now on, I will no longer be a villain of the Black Lotus Sect despised by everyone, but a great unsung hero within the Immortal Alliance!"

Thinking of this, Shen Feiyang immediately revealed a heartfelt smile.

He smiled and said, "If someone must walk in the darkness before the dawn, then let it be me. After all, my life... is already dark enough.

"Rest assured, Lord Yu, I, Feiyang... will definitely not fail my mission."

Looking at Shen Feiyang’s sincere expression, Yu Tianqi’s eyes began to moisten.

He thought, "What a good child. I am the one who has delayed you.

"But don’t worry, as long as I, Yu Tianqi, am alive for a single day, I will absolutely not let you down!

"If a child can have this kind of resolve, then an old man like me definitely cannot betray his trust.

"After peace is achieved, perhaps there will be no Yu Tianqi, but before peace arrives... there will definitely be Yu Tianqi!

"Student Feiyang, I will definitely let you see the day when the Immortal Alliance brings peace to the world."

A beautiful misunderstanding allowed these two people, who should have been opposed to each other, to establish an indescribable absolute trust.

In this harmonious atmosphere, Shen Feiyang spent a little more time with Yu Tianqi to hammer out some details of his undercover role.

Shen Feiyang also finally learned the name of their undercover operation from Yu Tianqi.

"New World"—this was the name of their operation.

It signified that they would join hands to create a brand new world without the Evil Demon and Heretic Dao.

To protect Shen Feiyang’s safety, Yu Tianqi gave him a few final instructions before letting him head back.

After all, the fewer people who knew Shen Feiyang had met with him, the safer it would be for Shen Feiyang.

On the way back, Shen Feiyang couldn’t help but hum a little tune, thrilled to pieces.

He thought, "Hehehe, being an undercover agent in the Black Lotus Sect...

"Who would have thought that there would actually be such a great thing delivered right to my doorstep in this world!

"As long as I have this identity, I, Shen Feiyang, can be considered completely washed clean of my past."

The thought of being able to retreat unscathed from the Black Lotus Sect three years later and embrace a happy life made Shen Feiyang unable to stop laughing.

He thought, "In the past, I wanted to be a good person, but I had no choice.

"Now that I have the right to choose, I definitely have to walk out of that darkness.

"Black Lotus Sect?

"Sorry, I’m an undercover agent!

"Hehe, on such a happy day today, I should properly relax and treat myself to a good meal at a food stall.

"Speaking of which, it’s been a long time since I had that nightmare where I turned into a Magic Corpse in the tomb of some unknown Sect, honestly working as a Tomb Guardian for the Sect, only to be killed in one sword strike by some bastard.

"So it turns out it was because my luck was about to change for the better!

"The nightmares are gone, and my identity with the Black Lotus Sect is washed clean.

"Sure enough, boys who love to smile won’t have bad luck!

"I, Shen Feiyang, can finally hold my head high!"

Meanwhile, because Chen Fugui still needed to pull some strings for Lu Chen, he declined contact with other investigators on Lu Chen’s behalf. He told Lu Chen to return to school and rest well first, and to start finalizing matters regarding the Four Great Dao Schools in a few days.

This arrangement suited Lu Chen perfectly.

Right now, besides needing to sort through the massive harvest he had obtained from the examination grounds, he was also preparing to challenge the newly activated Dungeon.

Indeed, because this joint examination was held at the Second High School, Lu Chen had just used this opportunity to activate the Second High School’s game Dungeon.

Unsurprisingly to Lu Chen, the name of this Dungeon was also related to a certain mountain peak of the Cyan Cloud Sect.

[Dungeon: Bearers of the Tripod]

[Minimum Requirement: Qi Cultivation First Level]

[Description: ...]

Looking at the Dungeon’s name and the minimum Cultivation requirement, Lu Chen revealed a helpless smile.

He thought, "It’s the eternal, unchanging Qi Cultivation First Level, huh.

"Game designers of True Cultivation...

"Have you guys ever even played the game you designed?!"

PS: Pang Hu wrote the last Chapter in a rush, which resulted in the names of the three Holy Lands being a bit underwhelming. I’ve changed them; it doesn’t affect the plot.

[Qinghe Daoist School·Shangqing Daoist Palace], [Li Huo Daoist School·Wanye Immortal Gate], [Barbaric Daoist Academy·Nine Luminaries Celestial Capital], [Profound Water Daoist School·Vast Sea Profound Sect]
